DUAL-BAND 802.11N

SMART WI-FI ACCESS POINTS

High Performance, 802.11n Smart Wi-Fi Access Points

with Adaptive Antenna Technology

The Ruckus ZoneFlex R300 delivers high-performance and reliable

802.11n wireless networking at the industry’s most affordable price

of interference mitigation.

Additional performance enhancements to signal gain can be

attributed to the chip-based transmit beamforming capability

adding 3 dB when associated to a compatible client.

Each ZoneFlex R300 integrates Ruckus-patented BeamFlex, a

software-controlled, high gain antenna array that continually forms

and directs each 802.11n packet over the best performing signal

path. The ZoneFlex R300 automatically selects channels for highest

throughput potential using Ruckus ChannelFly dynamic channel

management, adapting to environmental changes. Once deployed,

Extended range requires fewer APs

Adaptive antenna technology delivers a 2x to 4x

increase in Wi-Fi signal coverage minimizing the

number of APs required to service any area

Advanced WLAN Applications with Smart/OS

When used with the Ruckus ZoneDirector Smart

WLAN controller, each ZoneFlex R300 supports

a wide range of value-added applications such

as guest networking, Dynamic PSK, hotspot

authentication, wireless intrusion detection and

many more. With Smart/OS, WLANs can be

or VLANs. In a centrally managed conguration, the ZoneFlex

R300 works with a wide range of authentication servers including

network, tunnel to a central location using L2TP or PPPoE, or

route between the WAN and NAT’ed private subnets. When

used with the ZoneDirector, each ZoneFlex R300 is automatically

congured through the network making deployment quick and

Each ZoneFlex R300 can be managed as a standalone AP

through a Web-based GUI,

using SNMP or through the

Ruckus FlexMaster Wi-Fi

to perform bulk conguration, fault

detection, monitoring and a wide range

of troubleshooting capabilities over a

wire area connection. The ZoneDirector

enables local management and control

of APs, adding value-added services

such as transmit power control, and guest networking.
